Most states have idiotic liquor laws. The constitution gives states the right to control liquor sales (21st amendment). In Texas, no alcohol (hard liquor) sales on Sunday and no beer/wine sales before noon on Sunday. We also have vast "dry" areas where no alcohol sales are allowed. Even North Dallas is dry, except for one little suburb (Addison). I imagine a large percentage of Addison's budget is from taxes on alcohol.<br> <br> The truth is that, in most cases, the laws are passed in cooperation with the liquor lobby. They are perfectly happy with closing their stores on Sunday. The large distributors own the legislature when it comes to liquor laws.<br> <br> I know. I used to own a wine store.
